The drama:
Some indian company made a “Anonymous survey” asking about a employee’s stress level.
Then they fired all employees who had a certain rating, even though it was “anonymous”.
The news article: https://m.economictimes.com/news/new-updates/startup-asks-employees-if-they-are-stressed-and-then-fires-them-leaked-letter-goes-viral/articleshow/116129662.cms
The linked article says they could not confirm the genuineness of the email. Is there any confirmation that this is real? I did a bit of searching and several Indian sites are reporting on it, but they all seem to be reporting about the outrageous email going viral, not checking the source.
I started collecting all the times it happened but gave up after 3 of them.
The only legitimate reason I can think of is that it’s viral marketing. I think they might be on to something.
Makes the company appear deranged.
Who are they appealing to
Western Psychopath CEOs.
You are indeed correct.
If only there was a man with a particular adjustment skills…
They caught him :(. It’s objectively hilarious that his name is Luigi though.
Nah, Luigi is innocent. Luigi was having a pint at drag’s house at the time of the assassination.
I think name recognition is good no matter what in their eyes. Many companies don’t care about bad PR.
Interesting because most of the Reddit front page is viral marketing nowadays.
The rules only cover viral marketing when they’re not already paying off reddit.
That’s a good point
Who is viral marketing the adjuster hehe
WTF does reddit suffer from leaving this story up?
Corporate owners don’t like the anti capitalist sentiment
Also “racism”
I got permabanned on there for saying child abusers should get beaten the same way they beat kids. The reason given for the ban was “promotes violence”, I appealed the ban and their response was “we don’t want people promoting child abuse, do not contact us anymore”. I don’t know if some admin was having a bad day or just illiterate but there are some power tripping mods and admins on there that will ban and remove for literally no good reason. The fact that they accused me of promoting child abuse when I was saying the complete opposite was pure trolling.
Maybe they think a child abuser who has just received a beating is more likely, not less likely, to go on and abuse children.
Think about it: do you really think a man who beats his children is gonna be a better dad after he gets beaten up?
Violence is a complex subject, and people’s instinct to solve problems with beating up people they’re frustrated with is a curse of humanity, no matter how obvious a solution it may seem in the moment.
Some people, lots of people actually, and with good reason, think that violence begets violence.
Mods are like Catholic clergy… It attracts certain types…
I am always amazed at how Trump voter gets less sympathy than pedophiles on neo lib modded socials. That’s the only calls to violence they will accept but god forbid we get a wood chipper going for a known pedo
ToS vIolaTioN
Trump is a known pedo
So is Bill cliton and some prince andrew UK and Chomsky and dershevitz
Bill gates too
What’s your point…
Diddy, Jay z
R Kelly
We are ruled and entertained by pedos
I got banned from the Ontario subreddit for “promoting violence” for saying that I couldn’t wait to piss on Doug Ford’s grave
deleted by creator
Maybe it’s taken down on the basis it’s a private email including multiple identifiable names and doxs those involved.
Even the to field is visible with multiple identifiable.
Seems very much not real. :)
Neither the email nor your article indicates that the survey was anonymous.
Why is this downvoted? If it’s true it’s a valid criticism, and if it’s false, I couldn’t find a mention of anonymity either.
because it’s not valid criticism. no one is complaining about the context of the survey it’s about Reddit suppressing a story on the whims of corporate moderators.
Same thing happened here. People here don’t seem to be actually interested in the truth, or sources. They just want to feed their confirmation bias to feel better about themselves.
Reddit ahh mental gymnastics
They just meant anonymous in the sense that they wouldn’t publish the results on Facebook.
An excellent reminder that “confidential” means “We won’t tell anyone else what you said but can still use it against you.”
Is it just because the company is named?
seems plausible it could be a legal concern about being sued for defamation
I suppose, althought the story is out there, and redacting the company name would be like a bandaid on a dead guy.
so what’s happening here?
r/India is a propaganda sub and you are not allowed to post anything that even remotely criticizes the government or points out social issues because it’s against their subreddit rules. You may only post praise and admiration. You are also allowed, or welcomed rather, to shit on any other country.
Modi has a troll army, you can find them all over the internet. They are a lot like the MAGA cultists.
Hindu nationalist are indeed brain dead clowns…
But you ain’t got to reach for Maga when we got neo lib acolytes right on Lemmy constantly moderating “wrong” think.
It’s still an apt description, so I am confused about the point you are trying to make.
He’s trying to bash his adversaries here by bringing it up on an unrelated post.
We got this behavior on fedi and it ain’t maga
Have you even seen r/india? It’s the inverse of what you have written. Criticising the govt is the rule there, in fact, there was a whole subreddit called r/indiadiscussion originally dedicated for meta linking of why people got banned from r/india. (r/indiadiscussion isn’t meta only anymore but if one trawls through the old posts, assuming they aren’t deleted, one can see the breadth of bans from r/india)
It’s r/indiaspeaks that was originally formed as a free speech bastion that turned rightwing because the main sub was staunchly on the opposite side of the spectrum(and loved to use the banhammer).
I don’t think I can link usernames here but a notorious powermod of r/india used to moderate r/worldnews as well and banning from once meant ban from the other.
This is simply false. Yes, r/India is a propaganda sub but it’s very much anti-modi and people criticize the government all the time. r/indispeaks is very much pro-modi. I avoid both these subreddits.
